Interfaces in TypeScript - with Taylor Swift

Interfaces in TypeScript - with Taylor Swift

I struggled this afternoon because a meeting was cancelled at short notice (or no notice) and that can throw me. So I am just trying to do what I set out to do - understand interfaces in TS. I am not meant to be doing TS stuff for now - if you know TS you know it gets complicated really fast and so I'm not trying to improve it for now - I am focusing on improving React. But I got told by someone I respect a lot to learn interfaces so I wanted to do this as a one off. But there are no good resources I can find 

I asked Chat GPT to teach me about TypeScript through my favourite Taylor Swift songs. TS... TypeScript... TS... Taylor Swift. lol 

An interface is the shape of an object. It's what it expects. Allow me to add this highly entertaining screenshot and sorry about the accessibility issues 

Chat GPT using Taylor Swift lyrics and themes to demonstrate interfaces


I don't know what the hell is going on here but this is the most fun I've ever had in my life 
Chat GPT using so it goes to describe interfaces describing vibes

What does it mean that public image here could be chaos OR mystery? hmm

AHHHH BRO THIS IS A UNION TYPE. This could be either 

So it has to be one of those two strings.
It CONTROLS THE NARRATIVE. Like Taylor Swift in Reputation
Using delicate to describe properties


And of course my all time favourite. A classic. Delicate

SHOWING HOW OPTIONAL PROPERTIES CAN BE ADDED TO AN INTERFACE

ZERO POINTS FOR ACCESSIBILITY OF COURSE 

SORRY 

I COULDN'T TYPE THIS ALL OUT

BRO

OPTIONAL PROPERTIES

So bro bro bro bro 
These properties are OPTIONAL. So like here the trustIssues are optional and they have a question mark
If only trust issues could always be optional
*mic drop*
"You did a number on me but honestly baby who's counting..."

Cardigan

This is getting trippy now BRO
using cardigan to describe interfaces and memory

got it got it got it. Interfaces control what shapes look like. They remember the type of things. It's kind of like defining a class in Python - right?

BRO THIS JUST GOT DARK

SEVEN AND STRUCTURE

There is an overarching message. TypeScript interfaces don't care where the content comes from or what it does. They don't care whether the information is true or false. They just care if something is there if that makes sense - thanks. Great 

Using the song seven to describe interfaces in TypeScript


Omg this is getting so cool beyond belief. 

Extending interfaces

BRO BRO NOW WE ARE INTO SOMETHING - BRO BRO BRO BRO. BRO

Now I am finally really learning something from this 

Explaining interfaces via hoax by taylor swift


Okay bro I do not get this bro

Lets talk about extending interfaces 

This is like python and extending classes. Okay bro
Bro. 

I need a bit more example on this. 

Okay okay more explanations needed please thanks:

Here are some more explanations in pictures, confirming everything that I thought I knew about extending interfaces 

Chat gpt explaining how to use extending interfaces

  • So indeed I suspected `HoaxLove` includes everything from `Love`
  • And then it adds some further requirements

Hello World

 Hello from Susanna Codes! Hi everyone,  My name is Susanna and I'm a 28-year-old aspiring software engineer from Brighton! As I type this, listening to music from "Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amelie Poulain" (it reminds me of home, in Luxembourg, where I am from - I'm missing home quite a lot lately!) and look forward to some Irish Cream tea in my afternoon break, I am thinking: How lucky I am that my amazing colleague Rosana helped me out with a plan for my software engineer journey (she directed me to the front-end first). How HTML and CSS would not have been my first languages of choice had I not been guided in this direction, as in my head they were seen as 'less-serious' langages. How done I am with what other people think of me and if other people see the 'front-end' as softer then so be it! Everyone has to start somewhere. I am so grateful to be on this journey, with Codecademy's Front-End Engineer Career Path.  Thank you to Async Brighton as ...

“But yesterday, I heard God say, you were born to be the one…”

“But yesterday, I heard God say, you were born to be the one…” Hey there. Still off work. Still tired. Lana del Rey released a new song. Thank God. My soul needed it so much.  I’m thinking a lot about everything. Thinking about where I went wrong. I just want to release. I want to release all the crap that is in my room. I’ve been trying to fully declutter since I was 21. I give away so much. I donate so much. But then I never quite finish. I never get to the click. And then I buy more. I don’t know what technique to use. There are so many techniques. The Marie Kondo method. I like to do kinaesthetic tests too. I like to pretend I’m packing up during the pandemic again and I have to make really quick decisions about what to keep and what to leave behind. That was no fun. But it was efficient. I just can’t release it. There’s so much stuff I can’t let go of. I don’t know how to. I don’t know how to. I suppose that’s a good metaphor for life. We accumulate stuff and we hold on to it....

Yosemite

Yosemite I'll never forget the first time I head the song Yosemite by Lana del Rey. I very nearly clicked away.  It was quite near the start of my Software Engineering journey, right near when I start learning the Front-End/Web Development. I was listening to Arcadia by LDR before, maybe twice, and then Blue Banisters came on. I nearly clicked away in the first 30 seconds but I forced myself to keep listening anyway.  I'll never forget how that song has made me feel. It became my song of 2022 even though I only discovered it in November. I can still listen to it every day and get that complete sense of wonder and of awe that I felt the first time that I heard it. That ending of the song is completely amazing, and it just completely just blows me away every time. "Withstanding all the time, changes, and seasons..." - LDR Concise Body Arrow Functions Why am I so bad at arrow functions? Whyyyyyyyyyyy?  Just kidding, I am beginning to get them. But why are they so hard? ...
